Kö-Bogen I & II: Düsseldorfs neue Wahrzeichen

In the organizer's words:

Green and urban, the city's formula for the future! On our guided tour through Düsseldorf's Neue Mitte, you will experience architecture and nature in an impressive symbiosis. Explore the urban landscape between Königsallee and Hofgarten. Important stops are two still young Düsseldorf landmarks: the Kö-Bogen I and II.

It was the banishment of traffic underground that made them possible - Düsseldorf's new center. The area at the upper end of Königsallee and around Gustaf-Gründgens-Platz is characterized by the signature of two great architects: The elegantly curved Kö-Bogen I by New Yorker Daniel Libeskind meets the urban planning vision of Düsseldorf's Christoph Ingenhoven. His climate-fit Ingenhoven Valley (also known as Kö-Bogen II) was completed in 2021. 30,000 hornbeams create Europe's largest green façade.

Vis-à-vis: the triangular market hall with a walk-on lawn roof. From here, enjoy the view of the historic Hofgarten and two icons of post-war architecture - Düsseldorf's Schauspielhaus and Dreischeibenhaus. Our guide will give you further unusual perspectives on old and new city structures.
